We now have valve springs and retainers to suit these engine

I know they're not going to by flying out the door at the moment, but would obviously be a requirement for people running huge cams (bigger then what we currently have) and or lots of boost

Slowly getting there with parts for the LLT

Awesome, more options for those looking to upgrade cams.

crit719 · 04-11-2012, 08:11 PM

hapisok · 04-11-2012, 08:33 PM

hapisok · 04-11-2012, 09:45 PM

btw...will these replace the shims for the cam install? kinda of a noob at the internal workings and such.

No stress

They won't, as the installed valve height will still be the same

Done

MACE_ENG · 07-02-2012, 01:58 AM

In regards to boost pressures with standard cams and springs I'm tipping around the 15psi-20psi mark where these might be need to be changed depending on the condition of the springs

V6owner · 07-02-2012, 05:45 PM

Oh ok I won't be at that psi lol

TJ91 · 07-02-2012, 06:29 PM
